Ryan Adams: 3FM Session (Video)

Ryan Adams dropped by the Dutch radio station 3FM recently, ostensibly to promote his forthcoming record Ashes & Fire. But Adams still hasn’t let go of his fascination with heavy metal yet, and the highlight of these three clips, which includes acoustic versions of “Ashes and Fire” and “Lucky Now,” is his interpretation of Iron Maiden’s “Wasted Years.” It feels like Adams is trying to get back into Heartbreaker mode with this newer material, although whether he’s successful with that remains to be seen. We’ll find out when Ashes & Fire surfaces on Oct. 11. [via OneThirtyBPM]
